Plastic Surgery

For it? Against it? And if you are for it...what would you have done if money was no object? For those that have had plastic surgery....are you happy with the results?

For me, I am contemplating getting a breast lift after I am done nursing and having babies. One of my ladies is bigger than the other so I may end up getting a size boost. Its quite noticeable...I may be interested in some botox when I am in my 40's, but who knows..thats a ways away. How 'bout you?

I want LASIK, and treatment for my varicose veins. I'd consider implants because I love how the girls look when I'm breast feeding but am seriously too chicken for that. I'd also consider Botox, but nothing else on the face.

I'm for it, but think people can go to far (hello Heidi Montag).

I actually have a consultation with a surgeon on the 12th of this month! I was planning on having a "Mommy makeover" around the first of the year, but I've decided to put it off until I can pay cash for it. So it might be a couple year, but I WILL have it done. 40th birthday present, maybe.

I would totally love a boob job and a few other little things. Maybe a tummy tuck if I can't get my belly the way I want it. I don't think I would ever change my face or mess with it much since it's like... your face. But I do need to do something for the fine lines I'm noticing more and more.

So I am totally pro plastic surgery!

Personally, I feel that whatever someone wants to do to their body, is their business.

I've had a breast reduction (thank GOD), and while I was at it, I had a tummy tuck. I love the boobs.....best thing I ever did. It helped me to breathe better, and it alleviated a lot of my headaches.....not to mention the relief in my back. The insurance paid for the breast reduction, while my mother paid for the tummy tuck. I went from 235 to 145 in a short amount of time, and I was zipping up the loose skin in my pants.....I always had an open sore, and figured that it couldn't be healthy. If I could go back in time, I would NEVER do the tummy tuck again. It was the most horrible thing I've ever done to myself. It was unbelievably painful.....and it was a long, difficult recovery. The scar is pretty ugly too,....it goes from hip to hip. I looked like I was sawed in half....which in all reality....I was. My surgeon didn't enlighten me before the procedure......and if I had known what I was facing, I would have passed for sure. That's just my personal experience......and like I said....I'd do the boobs over and over again. It was the right decision for my health, and it's not something I could ever regret. To each their own though......

I would love to have a boob job. But I am to scared of surgery. I hate the thought of it. I keep thinking what if something went wrong and my child had to live without me all for vanity purposes. But if I could get over this fear and have the money that is what I would have done.

I am pregnant with my first. My boobs were pretty big before, and they are probably going to be super saggy. Still, plastic surgery is not for me. I don't think it's necessary, and I also think it's a waste of money.Â

I think a lot of women view it as "sacrificing" their bodies for their babies, and it needs to get fixed after. I don't see this as a sacrifice, I am happy at the chance to get saggy boobs, flabby belly and floppy bum in exchange for a child. I am very lucky to have a child (and hopefully more to come).

But, self-image is very important, so while I don't necessary "get" the need to want surgery after a baby, I can see how it would be important and valuable to someone else.

I guess having said all that I need to ask if laser eye surgery is considered cosmetic, right? I'd be nice not to have to wear glasses. My eyes are still steadily getting worse, so it'd be a waste of money right now, I'd just need to get it done again. But it would be nice to not have to clean my glasses once an hour, or buy new ones once a year. I do kinda like how I look in them though...Â

Just wanted to add to my story and kind of respond to your post. My decision to have the surgeries had nothing to do with having kids. I was constantly at the doctor for my back, and the answer was always muscle relaxers. It was a more responsible choice for me to have the boobs chopped......which is why the insurance company paid for it. (We're a military family, so it's a miracle they paid for anything......Tricare sucks) The tummy tuck was a choice I made after losing a ton of weight.....my daughter was 9 at the time. I have since had another child, and I have a poochy tummy.....but I'm perfectly fine with that. I also refused any and all lipo involved with the tuck......I didn't think that was necessary. Tummy tucks are NOT to lose weight, or to look thinner.....in my opinion. The swelling was ridiculous, and it took me almost a year to fully recover. Not fun.....not at all. I was a 4 when I went in for the procedure, and when all was said and done, I was a 6. Kind of backwards, huh?

After you've had the baby and you have to look at your saggy reflection in the mirror every day, you might change your mind! Lol...I wouldn't call it "sacrificing my body" for my children. I would take all the stretch marks and sag in the world if it meant having my babies...but...If there's something you CAN do? Why not, you know? I mean, I have to look at this body, and tuck my sagging stomach into my jeans for a whole lot of years before I honestly stop caring what I look like (which I actually hope never happens!)...why not do what you can to make you feel good about yourself?

Alot of people might deny it, but I believe self image plays a big part in a person's well-being.

I have had a nose job. I had a pretty severe deviated septum and it needed to be corrected. I figured if I was going under they might as well tweak the nose a little bit too. It was the greatest decision I have ever made, my breathing improved dramatically and I am more confident with my appearance.

I plan in a breast lift at some point. This is our first and most likely last. Once we figure that out for sure they will get lifted back up into place. I think what ever someone chooses to do to their body is their business. I do think that some people go seriously overboard though.

I always said I'd never have plastic surgery because if I ever have a daughter who gets the trait I paid to change then how can I teach her self confidence when I wasn't confident. When I changed the thing she's self conscious about! I've always wanted a nose job. I have a big crooked polish nose! And after having a baby i'd like a boob job! I loved my 32As before baby but after baby they just aren't the same! I wouldn't go huge but a full B would he nice! If I had money I'd find something better to spend it on than plastic surgery. My hubby and kids love me how I look now so why change it... Plus the whole teaching self confidence thing!

I want a tummy tuck and boob job. Im going to start saving soon! My stomach is ruined from stretch marks and flabby skin even though I'm 5'7 and weigh 135 prepregnancy! My breasts are terrible and I'm so self conscious because of it, even in a supportive bra they sag. I would also like braces since I have gapped teeth and feel like a 12 year old but we will see. That's it, for now!

I think it's great. Like all things moderation is the key... I had breast implants years ago. I was 19. I also had a scar fixed on my stomach from a previous exploritory surgery. I plan to get a tummy tuck after this baby. :)

Well I have had plastic surgery so I am obviously for it LOL I had a tummy tuck, breast implants and lipo this past April. To say it was worth(money and pain wise)it is a understatement! I love the results, best money I have ever spent. Oh and my hubby is more than happy with the results ;-)
